Some HTTP/2 implementations are vulnerable to a settings flood, potentially
leading to a denial of service. The attacker sends a stream of SETTINGS
frames to the peer. Since the RFC requires that the peer reply with one
acknowledgement per SETTINGS frame, an empty SETTINGS frame is almost
equivalent in behavior to a ping. Depending on how efficiently this data is
queued, this can consume excess CPU, memory, or both.
